Frequently Asked Questions
Do you think it's worth your time to reupholster a couch?
Your couch can be reupholstered if you love its look, comfort or it has sentimental value.
The use of fabrics will refresh your style and help prolong the lifetime of your furniture,
the foam can be replaced and the frame repaired as necessary.
What are dual motor recliners?
It has two motors: One motor controls the backrest, while the other controls the footrest. It
is possible to recline flat completely, sit in a straight position with the legs raised, or adjust it
independently. Australians who suffer from chronic back pain or mobility issues are
especially fond of them.
What's the difference between single and dual motor recliners?
A single motorised recliner can only move both the footrests and backrests together. Dual
motor recliners give you more control over the chair, and they are also more comfortable.
You should choose a dual motor if you are looking for greater support and adjustment,
particularly in medical settings or with the NDIS.
What is the NDIS and My Aged Care fund for recliner chairs?
NDIS and My Aged Care funds recliners chairs if it is deemed necessary and reasonable to
support your disabilities. Funding is likely to go towards chairs with lift and reclining
functions, pressure-relief seats, or special posture supports. Consult your NDIS planner and
occupational therapists before making any purchases.
What is the NDIS and My Aged Care furniture fund?
NDIS and My Aged Care funding is generally allocated to specialised furniture or adaptable
furnishings that promote independent living for people with disabilities. These include lift
chairs and dual motor recliners. Standard furnishings like couches, beds, and dining chairs
will not be covered unless the modifications are made to support your needs.
What's Australia’s top recliner that relieves back pain?
Australians who suffer from backache will usually choose the following recliners:
- Dual-motor recliners with independent position
- Strong Lumbar Support
- Orthopaedic memory foam or cushioning
- Utilise the lifting function to relieve strain on your back when standing. Specially recommended are lift and recline chairs that make movement easy and help maintain a healthy posture.
When will I have to replace my foam reupholstery furniture?
Foam will cause your cushions to no longer bounce back, be lumpy, or sag. Foam
replacement in furniture can restore comfort while improving posture. It will also extend
the life expectancy of the furniture. Soft, medium, or firm density can be selected
depending on how comfortable the foam is
Will I be able to select my own material for the reupholstering of a sofa or chair?
Of course. We offer a range of fabrics and/or options in leather to meet your needs and
preferences. Many options are available to help you customise your sofa.
Does reupholstery make a more cost effective option than buying an entirely new couch or furniture?
Reupholstering is worth considering if your lounge has sentimental value, unique historical
character, it’s a well made piece from a reputable brand or if you want to update
sustainably.
